Moon over my head

https://eastasiastudent.net/china/classical/su-shi-water-song/

When was the oldest moon
I toast the green blue sky
No one knows in heaven
What year is tonight

Oh wind there I shall fly
Yes I fear the jade fortress
Too high and too cold to bear
I'm dancing with my shade
It's just out of this world

Curving the red post
Down the silk draped door
Shining on the sleepless
Why does she always shine
All the time when we part


Men cry, laugh, meet and part
Moons dim, shine, wax and wane
Same as hard since the ancient
